Husbands & Pregnancy

I really hate to post this but my husband is not getting it. Every other day it’s “Whats wrong with you?”(as if I have an attitude problem), “Your energy has been low lately.”, being extra annoying even after I’ve asked him to stop, complaining about not having sex enough, etc.... IM PREGNANT!!! Only in my first trimester so you know how I’m doing. I’m so over it. Is anyone else feeling like their husband is not understanding what we’re going through? I forgot to mention this is kid #4 so it’s not anything new.... We made this decision together but I just feel like he’s not fully supportive or understanding.

Sorry to hear that. I have been going to bed right after the kids lately, and up at 5:30 with the baby, so there isn't much time to listen to complaining
I keep saying things all the time how I am growing a baby, and I complain to him about being so tired. This is #4 for us as well, so we both know the tiredness will wear off eventually!

That being said, we still try to dtd about once a week, it is like our unofficial minimum, however if we go a little longer than that he is usually fine.

My husband wanted to know why i was acting sick all day because isnt it morning sickness? 🙄😒 this is our second. Men just honestly dont get it. I try not to hold it against him but sometimes I just wanna smother him with my pregnancy pillow.

I generally know I am pregnant before I even test bc I have no fucks to give when it comes to the husband and anything that might even slightly border on complaining or snarkiness.

I am usually super tolerant and do shit even though it might annoy me ex: do dishes after I just cooked dinner while he sits and watches tv- bc usually he helps and whatever, it’s not worth the fight. But not when I’m pregnant. F no. Get your ass up and wash this shit. I just cooked for your ass. Also, do the laundry. And give me a foot rub.

And I’m not sure if it’s the change in my demeanour or the tone of voice or what, but he never argues with me. Lol. I’m not proud. It is what it is. I just am incapable of dealing with his shit when preggo.

My husband is acting the same way, this is our fifth & he acts like he’s a victim of domestic abuse because hes only getting laid half as much. I’m exhausted all the time & he has no tolerance for my hormones, & I have zero tolerance for BS so it makes for some dysfunction. Can’t wait for the second trimester!!

LOLOL!!! I seriously will never understand men’s needs for sex. It’s kind of ridiculous.

I totally understand what you are going threw. My husband is just now understanding that my morning sickness is horrible and I'm exhausted and just wanna sleep. I can't wait till my 2nd trimester. Good luck ❤️

I’d like to be able to actually enjoy sex rather be annoyed that I have to lol. Thankfully my husband hasn’t said much but I’m annoyed with myself. I hate not feeling like myself, hate being lazy and let’s not even talk about the moodiness😳. I’m 10 weeks so hopefully I’m almost in the clear lol
